Cream of Mushroom Soup
June 11, 2012 by 1 Comment
I’m a mushroom lover (yeah I know, nothing new here!), they are so tasty and you can make so many dishes with them. The other day I realized that I have many recipes with mushrooms but no soups so I decided to make this light and tasty Cream of Mushroom Soup. It’s perfect for the chilly spring days or not-so-hot summer days and we have many of these around here

Grilled Chicken, Asparagus and Mushrooms Sandwich
May 21, 2012 by Leave a Comment
Asparagus is in season this month! Actually, in Ontario, May is the prime asparagus growing season so make the most out of it while you can. As I mentioned in my previous post, we picked some fresh asparagus and rhubarb from Andrews’ Scenic Acres farm in Halton Hills/Milton. I showed you the delicious Rhubarb & Strawberry Pie I made and now it’s time to learn the easiest way to cook asparagus. This sandwich is very tasty and perfect for a light and healthy meal. For a vegetarian version of the sandwich, just take the chicken out .

5licious: Salsa Chicken with Mushrooms
May 10, 2012 by Leave a Comment
It’s time to dust off my slow cooker for an easy and delicious Salsa Chicken. I don’t use my slow cooker very often as I’m not very comfortable leaving it unattended for so many hours as most people do. I agree is quite convenient to place all the ingredients in the slow cooker, go to work and come back to a meal. But, the main reason I like using it is that slow cooking at a low temperature helps retain the natural juices and allows for a better distribution of flavours. Hubby and I really loved this meal and the sauce was so delicious. I hope you’ll enjoy this recipe too!

5licious: Marinated Mushrooms
March 20, 2012 by Leave a Comment
Marinated mushrooms are easy to make and very tasty. I must give my dad credit for coming up with this recipe. He’s been making these marinated mushrooms for a long time and actually he was the chef in the kitchen this time as well. I only took care of the pictures . You can enjoy these mushrooms in so many ways! They are great as an appetizer for buffet style gatherings. You can have them as a light meal, use them in salads or as a garnish.

This is such a savory recipe with a moist and flavourful stuffing. I found the recipe on mushrooms.ca but I’ve modified it slightly by adjusting the ingredients to my taste (more mushrooms of course!) and adding white wine. Here’s the original recipe. We served it with mashed potatoes and my amazing Beet Salad.

Fettuccine with Mushrooms and Tomato Sauce

I made this about two weeks ago but did not get a chance to post the recipe until now. We’ve been busy looking for and buying our first home… it was such a great and exciting experience! On top of that I’ve been studying for an exam, so I had almost no time to cook or post recipes 
. But good news, I’m back in the kitchen (and no, not in our new kitchen… or at least not until July), making some delicious recipes that I can’t wait to share with you. And now let’s get back to this quick and easy-to-make recipe that really saved me during those busy times I was mentioning.

This recipe is from my favourite cookbook so far – Ultimate Kitchen Companion – that has over 2,000 recipes. Chicken Coriander Pie is a high-protein dish that is very easy to make and can be served as a main course. As far as I know this dish has its roots in the Indian cuisine.
